Oh, and character death!

"Buffy, I met John before your father was really serious in my life," Joyce said. "I don't know how John knew, but he sent Dean and Sam to get to know you."

Dean and Sam shifted at the lie being spoken. It was true that they were coming to get to know Buffy, but they had planned on leaving Sunnydale with Buffy and Joyce.

"Get to know me?" Buffy looked toward Dean and Sam. "Right, we're related, aren't we?"

"Why don't you show Dean and Sam around town, while I make room for them?" Joyce offered.

"Mrs. Summers, it's fine," Dean shook his head. "We can find a motel."

"Call me Joyce," she smiled. "We may not be related, but you're still guests in this home."

Dean looked ready to argue again, but Buffy interrupted by taking him and Sam by the arm and headed for the door. "It's better if you just roll with it. She'd invited just about anyone in to stay with us."

The brothers, fully aware of the dangers that lurked in Sunnydale, shared a look with one another. If Joyce would invite anyone into the house, what was to stop her from inviting a vampire?

----------------------

The walk to Main Street had been nothing but a tense event, especially since Dean wanted to drive rather than use his feet. Buffy had told him walking was good for him, which Dean then insinuated that Buffy was calling him fat.

Sam was able to calm Dean before he did something he'd regret. They still hadn't been able to start a conversation as of yet.

"So, what you do for fun around here?" Sam broke the eerie silence.

"I don't think I've heard the words fun associated with Sunnydale," Buffy quipped. "There's not much, uh, there's the Bronze, a night club."

"Anything else?"

"If you're going for a quiet theme, then the Expresso Pump," Buffy pointed at the little coffee shop. "We could go there and talk if you wanted?"

The brothers agreed and followed after Buffy, all too aware at the looks several male passerbies were giving her. Though they just met her, they felt protective of their little sister. The 'half' no longer existed.

"Eyes on the sidewalk!" Dean snapped as a guy walked past Buffy. The guy looked toward the brothers and quickly walked away.

"You don't have to worry about frightening people away from me," Buffy laughed when they sat at a table. "That's what I have a boyfriend for, and besides, I can take care of myself."

Both Dean and Sam picked up the boyfriend comment, but only Sam heard that she could take care of herself.

"Did Joyce put you in a defense class?" Sam asked.

"I've been defending myself since I was 15," Buffy smiled. It wasn't exactly a lie, but she couldn't outright tell them that she had no knowledge of the self defense until she was called.

"And how is this boyfriend of yours?" Dean interrupted the conversation. "We don't have to tell him the big brother speech do we?"

"No, Xander has already done that," Buffy sighed. She saw the look in Dean's eyes before adding, "And Xander's my best friend since high school. Besides, Will would hurt Riley too."

"You're friends are protective of you?" Sam smiled. Maybe they knew something about the supernatural that Buffy didn't.

"Yes, and Will is short for Willow, as in female," Buffy shot to Dean. "Jeez, we are related aren't we?"

"What do you mean?" Dean asked.

"I just met you two and here I am, striking up a conversation and it just feels right," Buffy answered. "That doesn't normally happen with me. I don't usually talk to random people in this town."

Dean breathed a sigh of relief. She hadn't freaked out knowing she had two older brothers and she seemed alright around them.

Buffy couldn't believe it. She finally met two people who weren't connected with the supernatural and they were related, or halfway related, but that didn't matter. They seemed freaked out a little when they met her, not really knowing who she was, but after a few minutes of walking down Revello Drive and into downtown, everything felt natural between them.

A bond that hadn't existed was now showing, and Buffy was grateful. Problem was, Dean and Sam didn't know about her status of being the slayer, nor did they know what being a slayer entailed. She couldn't just tell them about the stuff they thought was fake.

"…traveling?"

"What?" Buffy blinked and turned to Dean. "Could you repeat that, sorry?"

"Sure," Dean smirked. "Have you ever thought of just packing up and go traveling?"

Buffy looked at her brothers for a second before laughing. "Of course I want to leave this place, but I have a life here and I couldn't leave my mom."

"Then it's perfect," Dean spoke.

Sam could see where this was going. Dean was speaking without thinking, which happened often, and Buffy was getting angry.

"How would you and Joyce like to leave town for a while, meet your dad, and settle down somewhere else?"

"Are you kidding me?" Buffy asked. "I'm not leaving here, I just started college."

'And I'm not leaving Hellmouth to kill everyone here!'

"You can transfer, or even better, just don't go," Dean dismissed the idea.

Buffy was going to argue some more, but she started vibrated. She found the pager that Walsh had gotten her, and of course, she needed her.

"I have to go do, college type, stuff," Buffy sighed as she stood from her chair. "I'll see you guys back at moms."

Buffy headed for the exit, still fuming over Dean, when he grabbed her arm. Buffy stopped, and before thinking of the consequences, she took a swing with her free hand at Dean.

Dean was quick and caught her fist in his hand. With a smirk he told her, "You ain't the only one who's been trained, sweetheart."

Buffy smirked as well. She easily pulled her hands free and grabbed Dean's. Though she was in a public place, she placed a well aimed kick in Dean's chest. She was careful not to use too much strength as he flew into Sam, who was able to catch and stable him.

She left without another word, leaving a speechless Dean and a laughing Sam.

"Yea, she's definitely family," Sam said. "She's got your smirk and your temper."

----------------------

Stephenson Dorm

Though she roomed with Willow, old habits died hard. After being tested by Walsh, which meant Buffy kicking soldier ass, she was too lazy to inside the dorm when her room was on the ground floor and not far from the sidewalk.

She was lucky the window was the open as she placed her sword in the room first and climbed in. What she hadn't expected was someone to tackle her halfway in the room.

Buffy fell Willow's bed with her attacker. She brought her leg up and managed to the kick the person in the head. She rose from the bed, as did her attacker. They threw the first punch, which Buffy was able to duck and brought her own to their chin in an uppercut.

The body fell back onto the bed. Buffy was ready to attack again when another body grabbed her from behind. She knew she was going to regret what she did next.

She threw her head back, hitting the demon in the face, which let go and stumbled backward, when Buffy kicked it in the stomach. After her vision stopped blurring, the first demon she hit rose again. With another tackle, Buffy hit the floor with a thud, as if her head wasn't already hurting.

She lashed out with her fists, and with her strength, she sent the body back to the bed. The demon whose nose she broke tried to get her in a sleeper hold. Buffy thought that was a little strange, since most demons go for the kill.

While in her crouched position in the demon's hold, Buffy brought her left leg up behind him and kicked him in the back of the head. The demon let go, and Buffy grabbed his arms and flipped him to the floor.

She found her sword and was ready to disperse of the demons, when the lights suddenly flew on.

Buffy's eyes went to the door to find Willow drinking from a water bottle. "Buffy, I didn't think you hated your brother that much."

"What?" Buffy asked confused. Willow pointed to the beds, and Buffy followed her gaze. She had her sword above Sam's chest, he was the only who tackled her and got the uppercut. She turned on her heel to find Dean with a bloody nose.

"Oops," Buffy squeaked.

"Oops is what she says," Dean muttered as he walked to the bathroom, while still holding his nose.

"What are you guys doing here?" Buffy asked.

"Joyce told us where we could meet you," Sam answered as he held his chin. She didn't look like much, but his sister knew how put force behind a punch. "And your friend Willow let us in, but she had to leave so we waited here."

"And you decided to attack me?" Buffy turned to look at Dean who walked back to the bed.

"If you had come in through the door like normal people do, then maybe we wouldn't have," Dean answered. "And what's with the sword?"

"Defense class," Buffy answered without hesitation.

Dean and Sam knew a lie when they heard one, but didn't comment. Plus, when Willow left them alone, Dean couldn't help but look around their room. They found a trunk of weapons in Buffy's closet, but when Dean looked on Willow's side of the room, they found spell books.

Could it have been possible that Buffy didn't know about Willow's hobby? Probably not.

"So why'd you come here?" Buffy asked. "You're not trying to get me to leave again are you?"

"Leave?" Willow asked as she stepped closer to the family. "Why would you leave?"

"Our dad, for some reason," Dean lied again, "Thinks something is wrong here and he wants Buffy and Joyce to leave."

Buffy looked to Willow, who understood completely. Hellmouth. But how did her father know about it?

"Nothing is wrong here," Buffy lied.

"What about the whole lost voices thing?" Sam fired at Buffy.

"Something went around the town, it can happen," Willow shrugged. "And besides, I'm speaking now, so everything is fine, Buffy doesn't have to leave."

"Did you have something to do with it?" Dean snapped at Willow. "We saw the books you have. You decided to play God and got in over your head and the whole town suffered because of it."

"You mean the books that are in the back of my closet?" Willow glared. "And no, I had nothing to do with it. Nice to know you're taking the magic thing so easily."

"We've seen weirder," Dean glared back as he walked closer to Willow.

Buffy could see this and stepped between them. "Now is not the time for this."

Before Buffy could speak again, the phone started ringing. With a warning glance to Willow and Dean, Buffy went to pick up the phone.

"Hello," Buffy answered.

"Buffy," Joyce whispered into the phone. "Something's in the house."

"Mom, go to your room and lock the door," Buffy said before the line went dead. "Mom? Mom!"

"Buffy, what is it?" Willow turned her attention away from Dean.

"There's something in the house," Buffy said before she bolted from the dorm, sword in hand. The brother's followed after, leading Buffy to the car, rather than running all the way. Willow went to the phone to dial the rest of the Scoobies.

----------------------

After speeding to the house, Buffy jumped from the car before Dean could stop the car. She raced toward the front door, which was already open, and ran up the stairs.

She stopped at her mom's door and found that it was locked. She knocked and called out her mom's name, but received no answer. She stepped back and kicked the door down, and froze.

Her mom was on the ceiling, staring down at her.

"Mommy?" Buffy whispered as she walked closer.

The body erupted in flames before Buffy had a chance to save her. Buffy fell to the floor in tears, completely unaware of someone calling out her name.

Dean and Sam raced upstairs and were forced to face the same horror as before. They found Buffy on her knees as the fire started to consume everything around them.

"Sam, grab Buffy!" Dean yelled.

Sam did as he was told as he cradled Buffy in his arms and ran from the house. Moments later, Dean emerged as the house was taken up by the flames. They barely heard the sounds of the fire trucks coming down the street.

"We've got to go, Buffy," Sam spoke to the girl. She was basically comatose as they set her in the backseat of the Impala. "Where we are going, Dean?"

"Giles," Buffy finally spoke. "I need to find them and tell them what happened."

Dean agreed and was soon speeding down the street, listening Buffy's directions. The two brothers shared another look with one another at the events that had taken place.

Yep, Buffy was definitely a Winchester.

----------------------

End

Well, yes and no?

I'm thinking maybe a sequel since there's the question of why Dean and Sam weren't freaked when they found the magic books, and how Buffy was able to take them out in the darkness of the dorm, but I'm not sure yet.

Don't hate me for ending it so soon!
